Our website is a purely informational corporate resource and is made available to visitors who wish to learn about our software development activities, products, and professional services.

Please read these Terms carefully. By accessing any page of this website, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by the conditions set out below, as well as by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must refrain from using this website.

Acceptance of Terms

By visiting, browsing, or otherwise using this website — whether on a desktop, mobile device, or through any other access method — you expressly accept these Terms of Use in full. Your continued use of the website after any modification to these Terms constitutes acceptance of the revised version.

These Terms apply to all visitors, regardless of whether they are individual consumers, representatives of corporate entities, or public-sector personnel. No special relationship, such as a partnership, employment, or agency, is created between you and the Company solely by virtue of accessing this website.

If you are accessing the website on behalf of a legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have full authority to bind that entity to these Terms. In that case, "you" and "your" in these Terms refer to that entity as well as to you personally.

Use of the Website

This website is published exclusively for informational and institutional purposes. Its content describes the Company's areas of expertise, software products, corporate values, and contact information. The website does not offer, facilitate, or imply the provision of services directly through the online interface, nor does it host any transactional, e-commerce, or data-collection functionality.

You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and read the content of this website solely for personal, non-commercial informational purposes. This license does not include any right to:

• Download, cache, or reproduce any substantial portion of the website's content for redistribution, resale, or commercial exploitation;
• Modify, adapt, translate, reverse-engineer, or create derivative works based on the website or its underlying code or content;
• Use automated tools — including crawlers, scrapers, bots, or data-mining scripts — to systematically extract content from the website without our prior written consent;
• Frame or mirror any portion of this website on any other server or device without written authorisation from the Company;
• Use or attempt to use the website in a manner that impairs its performance, availability, or integrity for other users.

We reserve the right to suspend, restrict, or terminate access to this website — or to any specific content within it — at any time, for any reason, with or without notice, and without liability to you.

Intellectual Property

All content published on this website — including but not limited to text, articles, marketing copy, graphical assets, icons, illustrations, color schemes, layout compositions, logotypes, trade names, product designations, and the overall visual identity of the site — is the exclusive intellectual property of VITOR BRANDELERO DESENVOLVIMENTO DE SOFTWARE LTDA, or is used under valid license from third-party rights holders.

The Company's name, trading style, and any product names referenced on this website (including "OpenMES" and related software solutions) are protected commercial designations. Nothing on this website should be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any trademark, trade name, or logo without the prior express written permission of the Company or the relevant third-party owner.

The software, algorithms, system architectures, and technical methodologies described on this website represent the Company's proprietary know-how, developed through significant investment of time and resources. Any attempt to reproduce, replicate, or imitate these assets — whether in whole or in part, in any medium — without authorisation constitutes an infringement of the Company's intellectual property rights and may give rise to civil and criminal liability under Brazilian Law No. 9.279/1996 (Industrial Property Law) and Law No. 9.610/1998 (Copyright Law).

User Conduct

While using this website, you agree to act in good faith and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. In addition to any other obligations set out in these Terms, you expressly agree that you will not:

• Access, attempt to access, or probe any portion of our server infrastructure, network, or systems beyond the publicly available web pages of this site;
• Introduce, transmit, or upload any virus, malware, worm, Trojan horse, ransomware, or any other malicious or harmful code through any point of contact with our website;
• Attempt to intercept, harvest, or collect personally identifiable data about other visitors to this website by any means;
• Use this website to publish, transmit, or otherwise disseminate defamatory, fraudulent, obscene, or unlawful content, or content that infringes the rights of any third party;
• Impersonate the Company, its employees, or any other person or entity, or falsely represent your identity or affiliation in any communication made as a result of visiting this site;
• Take any action that places a disproportionate or unreasonable load on our web infrastructure, or that interferes with the proper functioning of the website.

Any breach of these conduct standards may result in immediate restriction of your access to this website and, where applicable, may be reported to the relevant civil or law-enforcement authorities.

Third-Party Links

This website may contain hyperlinks to external websites operated by third parties — including technology partners, industry bodies, open-source project repositories, and cloud-service providers — for informational convenience. The inclusion of such links does not constitute an endorsement, sponsorship, or recommendation of any linked site, its operators, their products, or their views.

We exercise no editorial control over the content, privacy practices, availability, or accuracy of any external website. When you follow a link to a third-party website, you leave our site and are subject to the terms and privacy policies of that external site. We strongly encourage you to review those policies before interacting with any third-party service.

The Company shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage, loss, or inconvenience caused or alleged to be caused by your reliance on content, goods, or services available on or through any external website linked from this site.

Disclaimer of Warranties

This website and all content published on it are provided strictly on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without representation or warranty of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company expressly disclaims all warranties, including but not limited to:

• Implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement;
• Any warranty that the website will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or free from errors, defects, viruses, or other harmful components;
• Any warranty regarding the accuracy, completeness, currency, or reliability of any content, data, or information displayed on the website;
• Any warranty that defects in the website will be corrected.

The Company makes reasonable efforts to keep the information on this website current and accurate, but the fast-moving nature of the software industry means that certain details — including product features, pricing models, technology partnerships, and regulatory compliance specifics — may change without prior notice. Nothing on this site constitutes professional legal, financial, or technical advice.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Brazilian law, in no event shall the Company, its directors, officers, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, or successors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages arising out of or in connection with your use of — or inability to use — this website or its content.

This limitation applies regardless of the legal theory under which the claim is brought — whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise — and even if the Company has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Covered losses include, without limitation:

• Loss of revenue, profit, data, business opportunities, or goodwill;
• Business interruption, whether or not foreseeable;
• Costs of procuring substitute goods or services;
• Unauthorized access to or alteration of data transmitted to or from the website;
• Statements or conduct of any third party on or via the website.

Where the Company's liability cannot be entirely excluded under mandatory consumer-protection provisions applicable in Brazil — in particular those set out in the Lei de Defesa do Consumidor (Law No. 8.078/1990) — the Company's total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising from your use of this website shall not exceed BRL 500,00 (five hundred Brazilian Reais).

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless VITOR BRANDELERO DESENVOLVIMENTO DE SOFTWARE LTDA, together with its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and service providers, from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, and expenses — including reasonable attorneys' fees — arising out of or relating to:

• Your violation of any provision of these Terms of Use;
• Your use of the website in a manner not expressly authorised by these Terms;
• Any content you transmit or otherwise make available in connection with this website, to the extent applicable;
• Your infringement of any intellectual property right, privacy right, or other right of any person or entity.

The Company reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume exclusive defence and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you. You agree to cooperate fully with the Company in asserting any available defences in connection with such a claim. You shall not settle any such claim without the prior written consent of the Company.

Governing Law

These Terms of Use and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them — or with their subject matter or formation — are governed by and shall be construed exclusively in accordance with the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil, without regard to any conflict-of-law principles that would result in the application of the law of any other jurisdiction.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising under or in relation to these Terms — including any question regarding their existence, validity, or termination — shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the judicial district of Paranavaí, state of Paraná, Brazil, where the Company maintains its principal place of business. Both parties irrevocably waive any objection to the exercise of jurisdiction by those courts on grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this clause prevents the Company from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction where necessary to protect its intellectual property rights or confidential information on an urgent basis.

Changes to These Terms

The Company reserves the right to revise, amend, or replace these Terms of Use at any time and at its sole discretion. Any changes will take effect immediately upon publication of the updated Terms on this page, accompanied by a revised "Last updated" date at the top of the document.

It is your responsibility to check this page periodically for updates. We will not routinely notify individual visitors of changes to these Terms, though we may — at our discretion — highlight significant revisions on the website's home page or in other prominent areas. Your continued use of this website following the posting of any changes constitutes your full acceptance of the revised Terms.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable under applicable law, that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect.

We aim to respond to all substantive enquiries within five business days.
